Described by The Times as both "the world's most enthusiastic man" and an expert on everything from pop music to astrophysics", by the Daily Mail as someone whose "wit and enthusiasm can enliven the dullest of topics", and by the Daily Telegraph as "dauntless", Quentin hosts a diverse range of events in Europe and beyond as well as appearing regularly on radio, TV and in print. He's best know for presenting the UK's most listened to science programme, The Material World on BBC Radio 4 - "the most accessible, funny and conversational science programme on radio" according to The Radio Times, "excellent...a splendid listen" according to Nature. Quentin is much in demand to host conferences, chair panels, facilitate debates, conduct interviews, give talks, and run science communication and media skills workshops. He's a regular event host at many UK and European science festivals, and from 2001-8 he directed and presented the nightly X-Change events at the BA and ESOF.
